Permanent utility connections vary enormously from project to project.

A single property may have relatively straightforward requirements. A phased residential or commercial development can involve multiple utilities, different infrastructure providers, meters, site constraints and carefully sequenced works.

We work with the site team to understand the programme and coordinate utility infrastructure around the way the development will actually be delivered.

Every site is different. The utility strategy should be too.

A site can look straightforward above ground while telling a very different story below it.

Existing gas, electricity, water and telecoms apparatus can influence design, cost and programme. Identifying that infrastructure before a land purchase or tender submission gives the project team an opportunity to plan around it rather than react to it later.

Our feasibility study can provide existing utility drawings, capacity information and budget costings for proposed new supplies.

For developers, that early visibility can be extremely valuable.

For a live development, utility requirements can extend well beyond a single connection.

New incoming gas, electricity, water and telecommunications may need to be coordinated alongside temporary builders' supplies, landlord supplies, disconnections and diversions.

We bring those elements together, providing a single team to manage the utility process around the needs of the project.

Utility infrastructure can materially affect the cost of a proposed development.

Our pre-tender and feasibility service can obtain asset records, prepare budget costs based on the site specification and provide a clear report covering utility infrastructure works.

That can help developers and contractors build a more informed budget rather than relying on provisional assumptions.

When assessing a site, knowing what is already beneath the ground can be just as important as knowing what you plan to build above it.

Water is fundamental to a working site or premises, but coordinating a new mains connection can involve more planning than expected.

Whether the requirement is for a brand-new development, a refurbishment or an expanding business, the right supply and meter need to be considered alongside the project timetable.

We coordinate new water connections and upgrades, helping clients manage the process while minimising disruption to the wider project.

If a development programme changes, are your utility requirements reviewed at the same time?

Existing utilities can have a major influence on how a development progresses.

Gas, water, electricity or telecoms infrastructure may need to be disconnected, relocated or diverted before other works can move forward. If this is discovered or organised too late, the effect on the programme can be significant.

Understanding the existing infrastructure early, then beginning the diversion process as soon as possible, can help reduce that risk.

It is one of those parts of a project that is much easier to deal with before it becomes urgent.

A new electricity supply is rarely just a case of installing a meter.

New developments, refurbishments and expanding businesses may need new supplies, increased site capacity, meter changes, temporary power, service relocations or network reinforcement.

Knowing what is required and who needs to deliver each part is where the process can become complicated.

We coordinate the required works from start to finish, helping keep the electrical element aligned with the wider project programme.

What has been the most challenging part of arranging a new electrical connection on your projects?

Electricity, water, gas and telecommunications can each involve different providers, processes and timescales.

For a busy project team, coordinating them all can quickly become a significant workload in its own right.

PowerSave Direct manages permanent utility connections from the project specification through to delivery, working with the site team to coordinate works around the development programme.

The aim is simple: less time spent chasing utilities and more time focused on delivering the project.

Temporary power and water can be among the first services a construction site needs.

Without them, welfare facilities can be affected, generators may become an expensive necessity and delays at the beginning of a build can have a knock-on effect on the wider programme.

We can coordinate temporary builders' utility supplies from the outset, and later arrange for those supplies to be decommissioned or replaced by permanent connections where required.

How early do temporary supplies normally enter your project planning?

Purchasing land or preparing a tender involves enough uncertainty without having to guess at utility costs.

A feasibility study can help establish budget costs for new incoming supplies, identify existing utility infrastructure around the site and highlight potential issues before they become expensive problems.

Better information at the start makes for better decisions later.

If you are assessing a new site, what is the utility question you would most like answered before committing?
